Good one there! But point of correction! The universities in question were not established in 2019 as the article sought to portray. They were "RENAMED" in 2019 and that is what has been reversed.

Some of these unwise decisions only divide the society the more giving room for another violent upheaval. Do not be surprised that many Ghanaians will welcome that bloody change targeting those who benefited from Jun 4th 1979.A wise Govt is the one that learn from the past and bring everybody on board, not this idiotic one led by John Mahama. Violence/Pataapaa Begat Violence/Pataapaaa.

So Mr. Accra, or was it Tema? Sorry.
If the idea is "idiotic" of Mahama, wasn't it senseless for Akuffo Addo to change the names and replace them with his now useless and decapitated party stalwarts for institutions he didn't build? What did these people do to be honoured with a national recognition? Rawlings who established the UDS university refused it being named after him, what did C. K. Tedam do to be offered that recognition?
Ghana isn't for the all-knowing but little-offering NPP.

If income stops suddenly, what practical skill do most people actually have? One thing that keeps paying daily — even in hard times — is smartphone repair & accessories. Phones break every day. People fix them immediately. Cash changes hands fast. This isn’t motivation talk.
It’s a practical skill many unemployed and working people are quietly learning now — especially to support siblings, relatives, or community youth. I’ve seen a simple guide by Chukky Oparandu that breaks it down clearly: how beginners start, how repairs + flashing + accessories work, and how it can even lead into IT careers. No big capital needed. Some people are buying copies just to empower others this season instead of giving gifts that finish.
If you’re planning ahead for 2026, it’s worth a look. You can search “Chukky Oparandu” on Amazon or check selar.co/m/chukky (there’s even a French edition). Just sharing what many are quietly using to prepare.

Rubish. Instead of resourcing C.K.T-UTAS, your are merely changing the name. A university campus where students compete with goats and donkeys for space is not fit for purpose. The inner roads are untarred and some secomdary schools even have more sophidticated lab equipment than that science and technology umiversity. These are the priorities government must tackle rather than changing names. Mahama is aware of the university's problems but decided to ignore same. In 2016, Mahama as president promosed to tar the university's roads and when a student reminded him of his promise, Mahama's body guards beat that student to pulp.

How can Kwame Nkrumah be the Founder of Ghana when the struggle and the fight for the Independence of Ghana had already been started even before the days of J.B Danquah and he was only invited by Arko Adjei and the other Big Six to help in the fight.
As wicked as Nkrumah was he imprisoned these benefactors and made some of them suffer and die at the Nsawam Prison. It was extremely excellent Nkrumah also died in exile in Guinea from a lonely miserable death. None of his family members including Sekou, Fathia, and his daughter was at Guinea when he died. It served Nkrumah right. How many Ghanaians were made to suffer and die in Prison after they were reported by members of his Young Pioneers who were indoctrinated to report them as his opponents. Yes, these included Lawyers, Teachers, the Police and Ghanaians that were suspected of being in opposition. Nkrumah was a deplorable Dictator who never had any open semblance of opposition to his government. He thought he could challenge Uncle Sam. He was mistaken. Uncle Sam organized Nkrumah’s overthrow with Harley, Kotoka, Ankrah and others to kick him out of office when he was in Vietnam where Uncle Sam had sent him to settle a peace between the Vietnamese. Nkrumah was just Power Drunk and felt he could organize Africa to become its President and lean towards Russia at the time of the Cold War. He was blind and mistaken and made a foolish mistake that caused him his demise.

The ammendment seeks to:

2.Reflect the geographical identity of the universities.
3.Strengthen stakeholder engagement and public appeal.
4. Position the universities more broadly within the national and international academic space.
This makes a lot of 'practical sense'.
Unlike the Osagyfo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, whose name is widely known and respected nationally and internationally, the names given to those universities are largely locally known.
This is a very good move by the Government and stakeholders involved.

it must not end only on the universities or schools alone,
the changes must be applied to every government property in the country
name the facility to it location to boost the fibres of the country.
we must promote the country and its environs more than the individuals who are mortals and shall die.
eg Accra international Airport - shall remain till the end of the world and could promote the Region for tourist and better things.
Kumasi stadium , Hospital , university , international Airport is the best name for the promotion of the Region
public figures could be reward by name some of the numerous streets , parks, parking lots , faculties in the universities , wards t in Hospitals etc to them.
eg
if a ward in a Hospital is named after me Rogue lawyer, I would make sure I do a renovation that suits my statues.
the same way if a street is name after k4 and he has the money he should make sure the street is properly design clean and beautify .
we must start it now-......
if there is a Rotary park and we name it after a prominent person and we have his or her status at the park, even if the person is dead and gone his or her FOUNDATION could take care of the park so that , his or her name shall remains in the lips and minds of the people.

President Mahama should think of how to create jobs for the teeming youth who graduate from the public universities in the country instead of changing names by Acts of Parliament which can be amended when he.is no more the president .For the first time in Ghana unemployment graduate association was formed during his first term and he better thinks of the 1.3 million unemployed youth in the country and stop doing politics as usual.

President mahama and military hierarchy is confused. First time in history's they can't pay pensioners that even served more than 30 years. In July ,25,Ghq (legal) release a letter warning dfc, why the government is not paying pensioner of 30 years served by the current CI. The pensioners that served 30 years unprecedented military service is going home with same military pay with old constitution instruments *(CI) of which The so called Devil Akuffo Addo did to thank soldiers. The angel mahama, who overtly want 3rd term dont want to pay, hence hence using the old tactics to pay people's served 30 years as if they served 15 years. President mahama, use ghana money of 70 million akuffor addo left for soldier pension to pay them than to save the exchange rate and stop looking for your third term. Pay retired solders what is due for them. Stop confusing us with your fucking illustrations with thr old CI. We know where Armoury is, and the people manning radio rooms. Be warned. Pay the right amount.

Why all these universities?It's nonsense for a country like Ghana which has Unemployed University Association to have such universities. Ghana needs technical schools with hands on training to help the youth. I am in favor of the renaming of the schools. But Knust should also be renamed. Anyway when is the youth going to benefit from the twenty four hours economic programs?
WHAT ABOUT BUSIA UNIVERSITY? - Ghanani 3 months ago

What about Busia University? Change the name without any further delay. Busia was a CIA agent and a terrorist. He even tried to stop the Gold Coast gaining independence from the British.

Then KNUST equally need to be renamed because someone name is attached to it.

This is a good move. Nobody should ever try to politicize Universities again like Akuffo-Addo. I'm glad the resetting is happening during his lifetime.
